Helleburg -- what did I buy?
Wait... who is Helleburg?
The mouthpiece says HELLEBERG, but the box is spelled wrong. Counterfeit? Or did Conn-Selmer forget how to spell his name all of a sudden?
Also, how could you even tell a real from fake mouthpiece? Because even the real Conn Helleberg only says HELLEBERG, right?

I would have put an "h" at the end.

Re: Helleburg -- what did I buy?
Have you contacted the Cyborg directly to see if it is real, because if the mouthpiece is a real 120S, you will be assimilated. Resistance is futile.

It doesn't matter how it is spelled. It's going to make you a legend.

Re: Helleburg -- what did I buy?
You've got MOST of a "Hellenburg"!
If it’s tourist season, why can’t we shoot them?

"Helleburg" - you actually did quite well!
There's a "Hell Berg" corn tuba, sousaphone mouthpiece on sale from Japan:

I wonder if it comes in maize?
